Leziate, Sugar and Derby Fens is an 87.9-hectare (217-acre) biological Site of Special Scientific Interest east of King's Lynn in Norfolk, England.[1][2]

These fens have extensive heaths and areas of wet acidic grassland, and there are smaller areas of damp woodland and species-rich calcareous grassland. There are many ant-hills on Derby Fen.[3]

There is public access to the fens, which are in three separate areas.
